Did I really say "eluded" here?!?!

I've been making errors left and right. Does not help that I was systematically sleep deprived all day yesterday. (Sleep study - every two hours they ask you to nap. The second you drop off, they come in and wake you up. In between you get to watch daytime TV.)

Good God. I'd definitely be shooting somebody in the face.

I am intrigued about that remark to Leslie.

I've been thinking about it and just wondered why you would say it. I mean, honestly there are an awful lot of very very normal people in Texas (Leslie included) If you haven't lived here or even visited I guess you can get a warped sense of how Texans really are but I found on the whole that they are pretty decent folk.

Next month I'll be visiting San Francisco for the first time and I guess I should expect tree hugging hippies to be the norm then?

Well, the advert is about 30 secs - apparently the above is an extended version for those who just can't get enough. I DARE you to watch 30 secs of it once - you'll get a taste of my day yesterday.

Yeah, I don't agree with the sentiment either but it's not my job in life to change people's beliefs. FWIW, I am constantly meeting intellectuals and open minded people here. Oh and none of the backwards redneck retards that post on BE are even from Texas.

I've been attending some Texas Women Democrats meetings but I've quit because I'm starting to hate Democrats and I don't want that to happen.

Tonight is gay Karaoke night.

I think people have a tendency to find exactly what they are expecting in life.

Yeah... sleep deprivation and watching that sort of "entertainment" felt like torture. Nine hours of it.

I'd rather listen to Devo. I've got a vinyl album of theirs that probably clocks at 40 minutes.

I didn't mention that an episode of "18 Kids And Counting" was on... and it was a rerun of one I'd happened to see. I saw many babies born and brides freaking out over their wedding dresses and one woman who resented being told what not to wear.
